Default Glint Wallpaper

I got lucky and snapped this screenshot when i wasnt really paying attention. I wish i was on my home computer when i did it, so i could have a 1600x1200 version of it, but i wasnt.


Anyway, here it is:



(click for full size)

I experimented with putting a smaller version of the logo in teh top right and bottom right corners, but i didnt like it nearly as much. The picture of Glint is quite daunting, so i wanted the logo to be bold and in-your-face. Also, the logo is centered based off the image size, i made one with it centered off the wings, if you would rather have that one, it is available here.

I wish the font they used was readily available, i wanted to title it 'Face your fears" or something corny like that.

There are no Mesmers or Necros in the picture. DISCRIMINATION!
But besides that, it looks really good. I might seriously use that on my desktop...

i think one of the thngs that makes it so attractive is the color balance, the logo matches perfectly with glint's lair. I thought about putting an overlay to make it less shiny, to match the floor more, but i think its nice how it is. Makes it a little more drastic.

Hi all. Sorry for the super old bump, but I just wanted to ask a question. I'm still getting 500+ downloads of this wallpaper a month. This thread has been archived and is plastered all over the net, with the link to my wallpaper.

I haven't played GW in years, is there some place i should submit this so it gets some more popularity?

I know this thread is way old and I'm thread neccing really badly, but is there any way I can get this picture? It doesn't show up here anymore and all I have is a little (less than 100 x 100) shot of it. If anyone finds this that has it, send it to me from a PM or I can give you my email address to send it to.

Nice. It's simple (ANet's fansite kit gives you hi res copies of the Guild Wars logo), but nice.

Do you have a higher resolution version?
